heavy... tuned to the eons-long drone of the darkest creations of space and the ever evolving galaxy clusters that lie therein... give or take about 50 octaves.
We came together, initially, in friendship made thru our individual involvements in the DIY Punk/Hardcore/Metal(death to false, of course) community. Hometowns spanning from New Mexico to Kansas to Oklahoma, we currently reside in Lawrence, KS. '05/'06 began the process of shaping Samothrace into our present state. Heavy music for heavy times. The lyrics, albeit poetic, are rooted in the ideals of social change, political incoherence, and a bleak but positive outlook on life... intended for those who've taken back their breath and risen on their own and those who wish to do so.
Members are currently or have been involved with; Oroku, Lethe, Black Christmas, Sentient, The Fuktards, This Building Is Cursed, Short Bus Kids, Christianistan...
Samothrace is an evolving beast. Keep it heavy... keep it underground.

US CHRISTMAS "EAT THE LOW DOGS" VINYL AVAILABLE NOW FOR PRE-ORDER
USX full-length, Eat the Low Dogs, features nine carefully engineered tracks designed to thicken the surrounding air blasting out of countless headphones and speakers worldwide. A multitude of effects intensifies the experience leaving one wondering what kind of sick yet talented musical minds are capable of creating such controlled chaos. Eat The Low Dogs is an amalgam of fury and grit, with a heavy dose of Appalachian angst for good measure, and should be enjoyed at the loudest volume possible for maximum intensity.
The official release date for Eat the Low Dogs will be November 24th. I'm Better Than Everyone Records is ecstatic to have been given the opportunity to give this record a long awaited vinyl release. This will be our first double album as well! The run on these will be at 500, with 400 being on thick black vinyl. There will be an extremely limited run of 100 copies that will be on blue and dark red vinyl, with each record having a different color layout.
